If you apply to move to a selective school entry into yr11, can you still pick 3u/4u subjects in yr11/12 or not?

ok so were you js allowed to pick 3u without any previous results or do they look at your previous schools result?
they allowed me to pick it wihout looking at anything. but also keep in mind that at syd girls u can freely choose to do ext 1 math/ext 1 eng.

just did girra "interview" yesterday.
when u enter they give u a 12 page form u need to fill, it wont affect your application or enrolment, its only just to update ur sentral information and record. then the deputy principal and a few year advisers and other important people start talking to all the kids and parents abt girraween high school and how everything works such as uniform and timings. theyll leave u to continue doing the form and then they each individually call one family at a time to discuss a bit more abt girra, they dont ask u any questions they just give u info. what they also give u is a confirmation of enrolment form that basically says "congratulations for successfully joining girra" and an ict agreement that youll detnsw internet software without doing inappropriate shit like playing games. u can also ask a few questions to whoever is interviewing u and then u basically leave thats literally it it aint even an interview

Does anyone know about students who are enrolled in high schools but then go overseas and aren’t attending most of the year?
I hear there is a kid in Penrith who hasn’t attended all year. This I feel is very unfair as it is taking up a place
The other kids in that year say there hasn’t been a new student since she hasn’t attended so they didn’t cancel her spot
Has anyone heard of this?

Hi,
Nope - I haven't heard of this before. I believe there was some sort of conditions regarding this on NSW's website but it is for sure unfair.

I'm not 100% sure about this, but there was this one girl who was initially on the roll at Penrith for the first term in my year, but she never turned up. I think she ended up choosing Girra or something and didn't let Penrith know. Another girl transferred back to her old school after term 1 this year, and that spot didn't get replaced either.
